Out singer-songwriter Steve Grand has
said he's on the market but not looking.

The 24-year-old Grand became an instant
YouTube celebrity when he released his gay-themed All-American Boy
video on July 2, 2013.

In February, he released his third
video, Back to California,
and launched a Kickstarter.com campaign to fund completion of his
first album.

The
campaign surpassed its initial $81,000 goal by nearly a quarter of a
million dollars.

“I'm
doing a lot more traveling,” Grand, an Illinois native, told Star
94.1. “I've never been to very many places outside of my own
state before this. I get to do a lot of prides and festivals and
events.”

Grand
said he found the process of coming out “terrifying” because of
his Catholic upbringing.

“I
realized I was a gay person and I wanted to do everything I possibly
could do to rid myself of it because of the way I was brought up and
taught to think it was a sin.”

Romance,
he added, is on the back burner for now: “It's really all about my
music right now. I'd be a terrible partner right now because I'm so
invested in what I'm doing and it's probably going to be that way for
a while.”
